UNITED TO THE FRONT.

Every unselfshly loyal man in Utah
desires that the largest possible number
of votes shall be cast for the anti-Mor-
mon candidates at the next election. By
the pursuance of judicious policy
number of friends OF free government
can be elected as members OF the Coull-
Gil and Assembly, and in quite a number
of school districts, Gentle control can be
secured in the Board of Trustees. In no
Assembly, Council or school district, have
the loyaists sufficient majority to elect
their men unless nearly the entire
strength OF that element can be brought
with a united front to the polls.
While it is certainly fact that all true
and loyal men, Republicans and Demo-
Gratis, are desirous of uniting in the con-
test against the common enemy, no one
but knaye or fool will assert that there
is no party feeling here to be reconciled
or allayed, or who will question the Wis
dom of the course best calculated to har-
monize the conflicting elements, and if
possible to make the political differences
a factor OF strength instead of weakness.
That there are such feelings to be recon-
ciled, in a contest Of this kind. is perhaps
to be regretted, but that such is the fact
is nevertheless true, and it is worse than
folly to ignore a condition of things bear
ing so strongly upon the chances of sue
cess or defeat. 1t was to be expected
that the morning paper, which is, more
than all other causes, responsible for the
creation and growth of political division
here, should discourage all attempts to
harmonic matters, by such method as
has been suggested by THE DEMOCRAT,
which is the only one available to escape
the effect Of the pernicious work of the
self-constituted dictator of political affairs
in Utah. Ii the Gentle people are wise,
they will not permit this morning paper
and its little Clique of obstructionists and
marplots to again lead them to
inglorious defeat, merely to crafty its
and their petty ambition to be considered
the leaders in another struggling and un-
successful charge upon the common en-
envy. Can any one mention an instance
where there will be loss OF vote to a
ticket, selected by the representatives OF
the two great National parties, based upon
such fair and equitable representation of
both as is conceded by all sensible and
unprejudiced persons, should be observed
in making the nominations? If there
cannot be such an instance cited, it is
perfectly evident that the entire Gentle
vote can, by this method, be consoli-
dated against the Mormon tickets, which
toall practical persons is the only end to
be accomplished. On the other hand,
The DEMOCRAT has assurances from the
most reliable sources, many of them
from prominent men of unquestionable
loyalty, expressive of their own inten-
tions, which justify US in the assertion
that nominations made in the
manner suggested by the morning
paper will result in greater losses to the
tickets, than compose the Gentle regis
tered maiorities in any of the precincts in
this city. Would it not be good sound
sense to adopt the policy which will
bring out the largest anti-Mormon voter

FRAUD AND SHAM.

Fraud and sham have always been the
articles of agreement under which the
Republican party organization has acted.
The latest illustration OF the kind work
ing together of these two well-known
Republican yoke-fellows is now before
the country in connection with the pro-
hibition movement.
Recognizing as promptly as usual 8
fraudulent opportunity, the Republican
party has clothed itself in the sham of
anti-saloonism.
Especially in the State of New York is
this fraudulent masquerade in full pro-
gress. In this great State every Repub-
hcan fraud, every party sham, must be
worked to the utmost. Trickery and
treachery must be resorted to in New
York, for New York is the key to the stu
alton. In fraud and sham is comprised
the only Republican hope in New York,
and consequently in the country
at large. Fraud and sham are the only
Republican weapons available in the
great American Commonwealth which
gave Grover Cleveland "a Gubernatorial
majority Of two hundred thousand votes,
and followed up the glorious record by
sealing the National triumph of De-
mocracy and the people in 1884.
Hence we have in New York the anti
saloon Republican sham-the prohibit
ton Republican fraud New York City
itself is the centre from which is radiat-
ing these fresh lines Of characteristic
Republican trickery. Anti-saloon Re
publican meetings are being held in the
city. OF one of these meetings the New
York World says that the terms in
which the speakers referred to their
party as the enemy of saloons, caused
very broad smile among the old-time Re-
publican leaders in the city"
The World then proceeds to vigorously
and efectually probe this anti-saloon
Republican sham-to expose this Repub-
lican prohibition fraud. 1t proves that
the Republican party in New York City
has always been q saloon party, and
shows with the clearness called for by
cold facts, the extent to which the party
has used, and is still using, the
saloon as an instrument OF party success.
The World deals in statistics. Robert
Graham, General Secretary of the CHURCH
Temperance Society, has been put to
considerable pains in preparing thete 0
statistics, which have been found to be
useful to the student OF machine politics
generally. They were gathered during
the Presidential campaign of 1884. From
the table Mr.. Graham has constructed, it
appears that, in that year, of the 81 Re-
publican Assembly conventions, 9 were
held in saloons and next door-that is,
connected with the saloons by con-
Venlent private exit--an average of so
per cent. in or adjoining saloons; and
that OF the "a primary elections, 9 were
in saloons and next door, an average of
so per cent. In other words, one out Of
every two Republican conventions was
held in a rum shop.
These statistics were prepared over two
years ago, but, says the World, the facts
are not different now from what they
were then. In proof of this, reference to

ACCORDING to annou Icement, the
Heber G. Kimball stock has been
rounded up at Fuller's Hill. The stock
was carefully gathered from its various
Utah pastures, and it is gratifying to
know that the descendants of all of the
original entries in the Kimball stud-book
were in the herd. The numerous widows
were out in especially full force and good
form, and we are glad to be able TO state
that the suggestion in yesterdays DEMO
Graf in regard to the prompt introduction
of these widows to each other was care
fully observed.

The Ogden Herald of last Monday con-
tains a vituperative attack upon Judge
Henderson, District Attorney. Rogers, As

Marshals OF that District AS the objects
of the Herald's wrath are all Democrats,
it does not look as though the Saints took
much comfort from the Republican or
gan's assurance that only pretense of
enforcing the Edmunds' law would be
made during the balance of President
Cleveland's term of Office.

Nigh. scene in ..peddIer,s Glory. ,,

Night scene ia s'PcddIer's GIory.,'
On the pike between here and Ter.
"a Alta there is a place known as
"Peddler's Glory" The spot gets its
name from the fact that pedlcr was
murdered there several years ago and
his body carried into the brush and
seCreted so that il was not discover
cd for several days after the murder
had occurred. At this particular
place lofty trees grow on either side
the pike, their branches intermingling
in such a manner as to almest ex-
clude the light Of day. A thick
growth Of underbrush TANKS each
side Of the road here which further
tends TO make the place look gloomy,
lonesome and desolate. Most PEG.
pie in that section shun this place
after dark but we have never heard
of anything unusual having been
seen there until within the past few
days.
The other night two young men Of
that peighborhood, who had been
fox hunting,wcr returning home and
when in Peddlcr's Glory they heard
terrific noise in the brush at the side
Of the pike and seemingly only a
short Distance nom them. they at
once came % halt and to their ut
ter horrlfcation there soon emerged
from the brush, only few PAGES in
front Of them, living skeleton with
a large pack strapped upon It's back.
. The skeleton approached tie young

They would have rctrcated but we're

their tracks IL came TO within a few
feet Of them and then stopped and
pointed tQwaEds the place 10 the
btush where the dead peddlcr was
found. Then aftcr striking it's breast
with It's bony hands until the sound
could be heard fifty yards, at lcast,
the skeleton disappeared 10 The brush
again withogt speaking a word. 1t
was some minutes before The young
men gained sufficient solfconlrol to
proceed, and they reached home as
soop as possible in a badly Brighten

has caused no little excitement and
